Nano - Playing Music While Charging
Sometimes you want to listen to the music while charging your Nano at a computer that doesn't have your iTunes installed.
To listen while charging:
- Plug in using your USB cable.
- Open My Computer.
- Locate and right-click your Nano and click Eject.
- Leave the Nano plugged in.
What you should see on the Nano:
- The "Do No Disconnect" should be replaced by your ipod interface.
- The battery indicator should still flash and display the charing lightning symbol.
- You should be able to operate it normally.
Note: 1. Ejecting in the system tray did not work. From comments elsewhere on the internet, ejecting from the system tray cuts power to the associated USB port. 2. While digging I found a question about how this might affect your battery longterm. I didn't find any answers for it.Labels: ipod nano
DVD Creation Info
I recently created several photo DVDs. In the process of researching tools and methods for transferring photos and DV video to DVDs, I found
http://www.videohelp.com.
The site has FAQs and an active forum with information about all facets of video.
The site also includes a tool and tutorial search. Each tutorial identifies, and links to, the tools used. The tool pages include lic. info and download links. Many are free. Complexity and flexibility varies. Both tutorial and tool pages include comments from users that give you a hint of how easy or hard the process is.
Good luck with your video projects.
